urapidil and Muscle Contraction

urapidil has been researched along with Muscle Contraction in 5 studies

Muscle Contraction: A process leading to shortening and/or development of tension in muscle tissue. Muscle contraction occurs by a sliding filament mechanism whereby actin filaments slide inward among the myosin filaments.

"Clonidine was the most potent inhibitor of the contractions, followed closely by B-HT 920."1.27Prejunctional alpha 2-adrenoceptor mediated inhibitory action of clonidine and B-HT 920, but not urapidil in guinea pig ileum. ( Shebuski, RJ; Zimmerman, BG, 1985)
"Urapidil is a novel antihypertensive agent, chemically related to uracil."1.27Cardiovascular effects and interaction with adrenoceptors of urapidil. ( Beckeringh, JJ; de Jonge, A; Thoolen, MJ; Timmermans, PB; van Zwieten, PA; Wilffert, B, 1985)
